Climbing the Google Ladder
April 19th 2007 05:33
To my amazement when I checked out the linkpopularity site last night (I’ve written about it before) it told me that my normal everyday blog on Blogspot has somehow jumped from being the last kid on the block to PR 2 on Google. This, for me, is an extraordinary achievement. Mainly because I’m not sure how it’s happened!
Perhaps more extraordinary, my Roving Report blog here on Orble has jumped from nothing to PR 3. How can this be, particularly as the blog with a domain name – Webitz (this very blog you're reading now) – remains at nought, in spite of being the most read blog.
It goes to show that it isn’t who reads you so much as who links to you, which rather defeats the purpose of all this writing we bloggers do. On the other hand, if we don’t have interesting content, we have neither readers nor linkers, so it’s a kind of win-win situation. Kind of.
Anyway, the other piece of good news is that I can start writing pieces for PayPerPost again. It's been niggling me for a while that I was cut out of it. Turns out that it was partly my own fault that I had absolutely no opportunities on there: I hadn't listed the categories my blog worked within. Have to start reading those emails properly.
